I like it a lot!
It reminds me of "When you were a tadpole and I was a fish" by Langdon Smith:
http://www.cs.rice.edu/~ssiyer/mins.....ls/txt/550.txt
"When you were a tadpole and I was a fish
In the Paleozoic time,
And side by side on the ebbing tide
We sprawled through the ooze and slime,
Or skittered with many a caudal flip
Through the depths of the Cambrian fen,
My heart was rife with the joy of life,
For I loved you even then.
"Mindless we lived and mindless we loved
And mindless at last we died;
And deep in the rift of the Caradoc drift
We slumbered side by side.
The world turned on in the lathe of time,
The hot lands heaved amain,
Till we caught our breath from the womb of death
And crept into light again...
" ...etc." (14 verses total)
